Information For Parents

Is your son or daughter having problems with their landlord? At Student Legal Services we understand that college students are often inexperienced or first-time renters making putting them particularly at risk for being taking advantage of by their landlord. Don't worry, we're here to help. From signing a lease to moving out, please use the resources provided by this site to make sure that your student takes the proper steps throughout the leasing process to ensure that their rights are always respected.
